A spiritual talk reflecting on thirty years of the Yoga in Daily Life community in Slovenia. "You see, we think we are the bosses of our life.

"Wherever Gurudev, Viśva Gurujī, puts his holy feet, there gold will grow up. I do not mean the real one, but in different forms." Swami Yogeshwaranand, a senior disciple, addresses the community, sharing personal stories of his spiritual journey that began with a book on yoga and led him to Gurudev. He reflects on the growth of the community over three decades, the importance of both material and spiritual education, and the guiding, often humorous, role of the Guru in life's events.

Jñāna yoga is very good, but it is just dry... Bhakti is, we are full of the juice, sweet, everything." He describes the soul's cyclical journey and emphasizes Bhakti Yoga as the essential, living path to Brahmaloka, using stories, poems, and analogies—like the self-deluding nature of dry Jñāna and the protective flame of devotion—to illustrate key spiritual truths.
